 E5                 F#5         E5   
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,    
G5   A5                               Em7(riff)
    Ain't no love... in the heart of town,
 E5                    F#5           E5  
Ain't no love, and it's sure 'nough a pity,   
G5   C5         A5                      E5    F#5 E5 
     Ain't no love,    'cause you ain't a - round!


Em7(riff)      E5            G5                A5
          When you were mine---,  oh, I was feeling so good,
           D5                      E5
'Cause your love lit up... this old neighbourhood,  
     E5                    G5                 A5
But, now that you're gone----, you know, the sun don't shine,
        D5                C5           G5         D5
From the City Hall...to the County Line!     That's why I said...


 E5                 F#5         E5   
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,    
G5    A5                             Em7(riff)
    Ain't no love... in the heart of town,
 E5                  F#5       E5   
Ain't no love, and it sure is a pity,   
G5   C5         A5                      E5    F#5 E5 
     Ain't no love,    'cause you ain't a - round!


Em7(riff)       E5               G5          A5             A5  A5
         Every place that I go,     oh, it seems so strange,
     D5             E5
With - out you there, things have changed,
       E5              G5              A5              A5 A5
When night time call-----, there's a blanket of gloom ,
        D5                   C5           G5     D5
Another teardrop fall... in my lonely room!       I said, now...


 E5                 F#5          E5           
Ain't no love in the heart of the city,    
G5        A5                              Em7(riff)
   There ain't no love... in the heart of town,
 E5               F#5        E5   
Ain't no love, and ain't it a pity,      
G5   C5         A5                      E5         F#5
     Ain't no love,    'cause you ain't a - round! Lord!

         D5                C5          G5     D5
From the City Hall...to the County Line!      I said now...

G5        A5                                     Em7(riff)
   There ain't no love... in this great big old town,
 E5               F#5        E5   
Ain't no love, and ain't it a pity...
G5  C5          A5                       E5   F#5  E5
